It's been two months since the devastating earthquake in Haiti, but Valley residents are still working on relief efforts.

A benefit concert that was open to the community was held at Trinity Episcopal Church in Staunton Sunday.

Local artists performed for a couple of hours and donations were taken in to be split between two relief groups.

Many who spoke at the concert say it's important to keep Haiti in mind.

"So now you can see it start to slow down, people are a little bit careless about Haiti, which is not good. I say it's not good because people are still in the street in Haiti. People still don't have houses. They still don't have food. So we need to keep pushing," says Patrick Eugene, a Haiti native.

The church will count donations Monday and post how much it raised on its Website.
